  6. High-z jetted quasars Padova, 7 April 2017 blazars can be

    found in optical quasar catalogs: SDSS+FIRST quasar catalog 105783 z > 4 1248 radio-detected (>1mJy) 53 radio loudness > 100 31
  7. Blazar classification Padova, 7 April 2017 Gamma-ray observations do not

    help X-ray observations! Sbarrato et al. 2012; 2013b

    catalog 105783 z > 4 1248 radio-detected (>1mJy) 53 radio loudness > 100 31 blazars (up to now!) 8 High-z jetted quasars M > 109M Padova, 7 April 2017

    energy density at z~3 becomes competitive with magnetic energy density in quasar lobes radio emission is quenched! CMB quenching Padova, 7 April 2017

    = ⌘d + ⌘B Which form first? Padova, 7 April 2017
  13. Summary • two different formation epochs for early jetted and

    non-jetted AGN: jetted sources form first! • we do not see the “parents” of aligned jetted AGN:
 - CMB quenching of extended radio emission?
 - heavy nuclear obscuration (dark bubbles)? we are likely missing many high-z jetted sources! Padova, 7 April 2017
